In the first hour of tonight’s show, Matt Pauley finds fault in how Seattle chose their top 3 stars in last night’s Blues vs Kraken game, and opines that too many baseball teams are okay with losing.  Matt is joined by two baseball writers this hour: Joe Sheehan of the Joe Sheehan Baseball Newsletter, and Jay Jaffe of Fangraphs.
